Good day to all;
My shop is looking to upgrade our CMM, we currently have 2 machines a 4.5.4 SF and a 7.10.7 SF both Hexagon Brown and Sharp.
We have 2 ideas for an upgrade. 1st- We are thinking of trading in the 4.5.4 sf for a 7.10.7 Global with scan capabilities(which we currently don't have) we will then have a 7.10.7 sf and a 7.10.7 global.
2nd- We are thinking of trading in both 4.5.4 and 7.10.7 for a one machine a Global S, with probing capabilities. The Global S is a bigger and better machine, at least that is what I have read and heard. Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated. We are in need of an upgrade, we do not have scanning capabilities.
It may be worthwhile to go up at least one size bigger on at least one of the CMM's. The day after the machines are installed, sales is going to land a contract for parts that won't quite fit on what you bought.
